1. What is Targeted Prints?

Targeted Prints is a local business based of Ottawa specializing in designing, printing, and distributing high-quality postcards to help businesses connect with their communities. We use targeted mail distribution to ensure your message reaches the right audience.

A 9×12” postcard is a large, attention-grabbing mailer that is mailed directly to thousands of targeted mailboxes. It's larger than a standard postcard and offers ample space to feature multiple local businesses. This size helps businesses stand out and grab the attention of potential customers in a way that digital ads often cannot.

Postcard advertising works well for all types of businesses, including:

  • Restaurants and cafés
  • Retail stores and boutiques
  • Fitness centers and yoga studios
  • Home services (plumbers, landscapers, cleaners, etc.)
  • Local events, promotions, or
  • seasonal offers

If your goal is to reach customers locally, postcards are an effective solution.

Each postcard can feature up to 16 businesses (each in a 4×3 inch slot). By combining ads from several businesses, each one shares the printing and mailing costs, making it affordable while still getting prime exposure in a targeted area..

Unlike digital ads, which can be easily ignored with a quick scroll or a click of the ‘X’, a 9×12” postcard is physically held and seen by the recipient. It’s tangible and stands out among other mail, making it much more memorable. Plus, it’s front-page marketing, meaning it’s likely the first thing people notice in their mailbox.

The entire process of creating and mailing the 9×12” postcard typically takes 3 to 5 weeks, depending on how quickly all advertising slots are filled. Here’s a breakdown of the timeline:

  1. Business Sign-Ups (1-3 Weeks)
    • We need to secure ads from multiple businesses before sending the postcard to print.
    • The sooner we fill all available slots, the faster we can proceed.
  2. Design and Approval (3-5 Days)
    • You can provide your own ad design, or we can assist with creating one.
    • All ads must be approved by each business before printing.
  3. Printing and Production (5-7 Days)
    • Once all ads are finalized, the postcard goes into production.
    • High-quality printing ensures your business stands out in every mailbox.
  4. Mailing and Delivery (7-10 Days)
    • After printing, postcards are delivered to Canada Post for distribution.
    • Delivery times may vary slightly depending on postal processing.

Total Estimated Time: 3-5 Weeks

The faster we fill the spots, the sooner we can get your ad into thousands of mailboxes! To speed up the process, we encourage businesses to sign up early and submit their ad designs as soon as possible.

Our postcards are highly targeted to specific neighborhoods. Local businesses can rest assured that they’re reaching the right people—neighbors who are more likely to visit and shop nearby. This means you’re advertising to people who already live in the community and are looking for local solutions.

A 9×12” postcard is oversized and colorful, making it impossible to overlook. It’s like a miniature billboard that arrives right in the hands of the recipient. Even if they don’t keep it, the large size and vibrant design make it stand out from typical junk mail, increasing the chances of people actually engaging with your ad.
